Identification
Common NameSulfur Hexafluoride
ClassSmall Molecule
DescriptionA sulfur coordination entity consisting of six fluorine atoms attached to a central sulfur atom. It is the most potent greenhouse gas currently known, with a global warming potential of 23,900 times that of CO2 over a 100 year period (Sulfur hexafluoride has an estimated lifetime in the atmosphere of between 800 and 3,000 years).
